PROXY STATEMENT

General

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors (the Board) of Orange 21 Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the Company) of proxies to be used at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held at the Grand Pacific Palisades Resort and Hotel located at 5805 Armada Drive, Carlsbad, California 92008, on
Friday, June 9, 2006, at 8:00 a.m. (local time), and at any adjournment or postponement thereof (the Annual Meeting). This Proxy Statement and the accompanying form of proxy are being mailed to stockholders on or about May 2,
2006.

Who Can Vote

Stockholders of
record at the close of business on April 20, 2006 (the Record Date), are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on the Record Date, the Company had 8,084,314 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par
value (the Common Stock), outstanding. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the Companys outstanding Common Stock constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Each
holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share held as of the Record Date.

How You Can Vote

You may vote your shares at the Annual Meeting either in person or by proxy. To vote by proxy, you must mark, date, sign and mail the enclosed proxy in
the prepaid envelope. Giving a proxy will not affect your right to vote your shares if you attend the Annual Meeting and want to vote in person. The shares represented by the proxies received in response to this solicitation and not properly revoked
will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions therein. On the matters coming before the Annual Meeting for which a choice has been specified by a stockholder on the proxy card, the shares will be voted accordingly. If you
return your proxy but do not mark your voting preference, the individuals named as proxies will vote your shares FOR the election of the two nominees for Class II director listed in this Proxy Statement and FOR the ratification of the
appointment of the Companys independent registered certified public accountants.

Revocation of Proxies

Stockholders can revoke their proxies at any time before they are exercised in any of three ways:



by voting in person at the Annual Meeting;



by submitting written notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Company prior to the Annual Meeting; or



by submitting another proxy of a later date that is properly executed prior to or at the Annual Meeting.

Required Vote

Directors are elected by a plurality vote. The two nominees for Class II director who
receive the most votes cast in their favor will be elected to serve as directors. The other proposal submitted for stockholder

1

approval at the Annual Meeting will be decided by the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual
Meeting and entitled to vote on such proposal. Abstentions with respect to any proposal are treated as shares present or represented and entitled to vote on that proposal and thus have the same effect as negative votes. If a broker which is the
record holder of shares indicates on a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular proposal as to such shares, or if shares are not voted in other circumstances in which proxy authority is defective or has been
withheld with respect to a particular proposal, these non-voted shares will be counted for quorum purposes but are not deemed to be present or represented for purposes of determining whether stockholder approval of that proposal has been obtained.

IMPORTANT

Please
mark, sign and date the enclosed proxy and return it at your earliest convenience in the enclosed postage-prepaid return envelope, so that, whether you intend to be present at the Annual Meeting or not, your shares can be voted. This will not limit
your rights to attend or vote at the Annual Meeting.

Board Meetings and Committees

The Board held six meetings during the year ended December 31, 2005. In fiscal year 2005, all incumbent directors attended at least 75% of the
aggregate number of meetings of the Board and of the committees on which such directors serve. The Board encourages the directors to attend the annual meetings of the stockholders, and five directors attended the 2005 annual meeting.

Independent Directors

The Board believes that a
majority of the Board members should be independent directors. The Board also believes that it is useful and appropriate to have members of management, including the Chief Executive Officer, as directors. The Board has determined that each of
Messrs. Casari, Mitchell, Roth and Theiss are independent directors as defined by the Marketplace Rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market (the NASDAQ) and the rules and regulations of the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC).

5

The members of the Audit Committee each meet the independence standards established by the SEC for audit
committees. In addition, the Board has determined that Mr. Casari satisfies the definition of an audit committee financial expert under SEC rules and regulations. This designation does not impose any duties, obligations or
liabilities on Mr. Casari that are greater than those generally imposed on him as a member of the Audit Committee and the Board, and his designation as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to this SEC requirement does not affect the
duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Audit Committee or the Board.

Board Committees and Charters

The Board has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board appoints the members and
chairpersons of these committees. Each member of these committees is an independent director in accordance with the NASDAQ and SEC rules and regulations. Each committee has a written charter approved by the Board. Copies of each of the Committee
Charters can be found on the Companys website at www.orangetwentyone.com.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Members:

Mr. Mitchell (Chairman)

Mr. Casari

Mr. Theiss

Number of Meetings in 2005:

1

Functions:

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board regarding candidates for directorships and the size and composition of the Board and
for overseeing the Companys corporate governance guidelines and reporting and making recommendations to the Board concerning corporate governance matters.

Director Nominations

The Board nominates directors for election at each annual meeting of stockholders and elects new directors to fill vacancies when they arise. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has the responsibility to
identify, evaluate, recruit and recommend qualified candidates to the Board for nomination or election.

The Board has as an objective that
its membership be composed of experienced and dedicated individuals with diversity of backgrounds, perspectives and skills. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will select candidates for director based on their character, judgment,
diversity of experience, business acumen and ability to act on behalf of all stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that nominees for director should have experience, such as experience in management or accounting
and finance, or industry and technology knowledge, that may be useful to the Company and the Board, high personal and professional ethics, and the willingness and ability to devote sufficient time to effectively carry out his or her duties as a
director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes it appropriate for at least one member of the Board to meet the criteria for an audit committee financial expert as defined by SEC rules, and for a majority of the
members of the Board to meet the definition of independent director under the applicable NASDAQ and SEC rules and regulations. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also believes it appropriate for certain key members of the
Companys management to participate as members of the Board.

Prior to each annual meeting of stockholders, the Nominating and
Corporate Governance Committee identifies nominees first by evaluating the current directors whose term will expire at the annual meeting and who are willing to continue in service. These candidates are evaluated based on the criteria described
above, including as demonstrated by the candidates prior service as a director, and the needs of the Board with respect to the particular talents and experience of its directors. In the event that a director does not wish to continue in
service, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines not to re-nominate a director, or a vacancy is created on the Board as a result of a resignation, an increase in the size of the Board or other event, the Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee will consider various candidates for Board membership, including those suggested by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee members, by other Board members, by any executive search firm engaged by the Nominating and
Corporate Governance Committee and by stockholders. A stockholder who wishes to suggest a prospective nominee for the Board should notify the Secretary of the Company or any member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in writing with
any supporting material the stockholder considers appropriate. Once the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee chooses a slate of candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends the candidates to the entire Board, and
the Board then determines whether to recommend the slate to the stockholders.

In addition, the Companys Bylaws contain provisions
that address the process by which a stockholder may nominate an individual to stand for election to the Board at the Companys annual meeting of stockholders.

7

In order to nominate a candidate for director, a stockholder must give timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Company and otherwise comply with the
provisions of the Companys Bylaws. Information required by the Companys Bylaws to be in the notice include: the name, contact information and share ownership information for the candidate and the person making the nomination and other
information about the nominee that must be disclosed in proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the related rules and regulations under that Section. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may
also require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as director of the Company. The
recommendation should be sent to: Secretary, Orange 21 Inc., 2070 Las Palmas Drive, Carlsbad, California 92009. You can obtain a copy of the Companys Bylaws by writing to the Secretary at this address.

Stockholder Communications

If you wish to
communicate with the Board, you may send your communication in writing to: Secretary, Orange 21 Inc., 2070 Las Palmas Drive, Carlsbad, California 92009. You must include your name and address in the written communication and indicate whether you are
a stockholder of the Company. The Secretary will review any communication received from a stockholder, and all material communications from stockholders will be forwarded to the appropriate director or directors or committee of the Board based on
the subject matter.

Director Compensation

The Company pays the following fees to its non-employee directors related to their service on the Board:



annual retainer of $15,000;



per Board meeting fee of $1,000 if attended in person or $500 if attended by telephone;



annual retainer of $3,000 for serving as chairman of the Audit Committee and $2,000 for serving as a member of the Audit Committee;



annual retainer of $1,000 for serving as the chairman or a member of the Compensation Committee; and



annual retainer of $1,000 for serving as the chairman or a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

In addition, the Companys non-employee directors receive nondiscretionary, automatic grants of nonstatutory stock options. A non-employee director
is automatically granted an initial option to purchase 10,000 shares upon first becoming a member of the Board. The initial option vests and becomes exercisable over three years, with the first 33 1/3% of the shares subject to the initial option vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the remainder vesting monthly thereafter.
Immediately after each of the Companys regularly scheduled annual meeting of stockholders, each non-employee director is automatically granted a nonstatutory option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock, provided the director has served on
the Board for at least six months. Each annual option will be fully vested and exercisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant. The options granted to non-employee directors will have a per share exercise price equal to 100% of the fair
market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and will become fully vested if the Company is subject to a change of control.

The Company also reimburses the directors for reasonable expenses in connection with attendance at Board and committee meetings and in connection with providing services to the Company.

8

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During the 2005 fiscal year, Messrs. Casari, Mitchell and former director Roger S. Penske, Jr. each served as a member of the Compensation Committee.
Mr. Roth is now a member of the Compensation Committee. None of the members of the Compensation Committee at any time has been one of the Companys officers or employees. No interlocking relationship exists, or has existed in the past,
between the Board or Compensation Committee and the board of directors or compensation committee of any other entity.

Required Vote

The two Class II nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares present and voting at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy
will be elected as directors. Each proxy cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than two.

The Board recommends a vote
FOR the election of each Class II nominee set forth above.

PROPOSAL TWO:

RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board has selected the firm of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as the Companys independent registered certified public accountants for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2006. Representatives of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement, if they desire to do so, and will be available to respond to appropriate
questions. Although stockholder ratification of the Companys independent registered certified public accountants is not required by the Companys Bylaws or otherwise, the Company is submitting the selection of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. to
its stockholders for ratification to permit stockholders to participate in this important corporate decision.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table presents fees for professional audit services rendered by Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. for the audit of the
Companys financial statements for fiscal 2005 and 2004 and fees billed for other services rendered by Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.

(1)

Audit Fees include all services that are performed to comply with generally accepted auditing standards. In addition, this category includes fees for services that normally would be
provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements, such as audits, quarterly reviews, attest services, statutory audits, comfort letters, consents, reports on an issuers internal controls, and review
of documents to be filed with the SEC. Certain services, such as tax services and accounting consultations, may not be billed as audit services. To the extent that such services are necessary to comply with GAAS (i.e., tax accrual work), an
appropriate allocation of those fees is in this category.

(2)

Audit-Related Fees includes assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by an independent accountant such as employee benefit plan audits, due
diligence related to mergers and

9

acquisitions, accounting assistance and audits in connection with proposed or consummated acquisitions, and special assignments related to internal control
reviews.

(3)

Tax Fees includes all services performed by an accounting firms tax division except those related to the audit. Typical services include tax compliance, tax planning and tax
advice.

(4)

All Other Fees includes fees for any service not addressed in the other three categories above.

Determination of Independence

The Audit Committee has determined that the fees received by Mayer
Hoffman McCann P.C. for the non-audit related services listed above are compatible with maintaining the independence of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.

Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures

It is the Companys policy that all audit and non-audit services to be performed
by the Companys principal accountants be approved in advance by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will not approve the engagement of the independent accountants to perform any service that the independent accountants would be prohibited
from providing under applicable securities laws or NASDAQ requirements. In assessing whether to approve use of the independent accountants for permitted non-audit services, the Audit Committee tries to minimize relationships that could appear to
impair the objectivity of the independent accountants. The Audit Committee will approve permitted non-audit services by the independent accountants only when it will be more effective or economical to have such services provided by the independent
accountants firm. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, all audit and non-audit services performed by the Companys principal accountants were approved in advance by the Audit Committee.

Required Vote

Ratification will require the
affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and voting at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy. In the event ratification is not obtained, the Audit Committee will review its future selection of the Companys independent registered
certified public accountants but will not be required to select different accountants for the Company.

The Board recommends a vote
FOR ratification of the appointment of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. as the Companys independent registered certified public accountants.

OTHER MATTERS

The Company knows of no other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting.
If any other business is properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is intended that proxies in the enclosed form will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons voting the proxies.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS

As discussed above under Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management, No Fear beneficially
owns 884,883 shares of the Companys outstanding Common Stock. Mark Simo, the Companys Chairman of the Board of Directors, is also the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of No Fear and has voting and investment
control over the shares held by No Fear. Mr. Simo disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities held by No Fear, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. In addition, he directly owns 48,968 shares of the Companys Common
Stock.

From time to time, the Company makes sales to retail stores owned by No Fear. Aggregated sales to these stores during the 2005
fiscal year were approximately $1,025,000, and accounts receivable due from these stores amounted to approximately $502,000 at December 31, 2005. The Company believes that these commercial transactions were made or entered into on terms that
are no less favorable to the Company than those the Company could obtain from unaffiliated third parties.

Jeffrey Theodosakis, a director
of the Company, also served as the Companys Brand Guardian during the 2005 fiscal year and was entitled to receive employee compensation for those services in the amount of $65,000 annually. As of January 1, 2006,
Mr. Theodosakis no longer serves in this capacity and he now receives compensation as a non-employee director.

The Board of Directors
approved a severance program for the Companys executive officers in May 2005 which provides that in the event the Company terminates the employment of one of the executive officers, that executive will receive a severance payment equal to one
month of salary for each full or part year of service, with

14

a minimum severance amount equal to six months, with the exception of Mr. Marshall who was entitled to a three month minimum severance amount and
Mr. Buchholtz who had no minimum severance amount.

See the above discussion under Employment Contracts, Termination of
Employment and Change in Control Arrangements for a discussion of the employment agreements and severance arrangements with Messrs. Buchholtz, Brower, Guenther and Kohlscheen.

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its executive officers and directors. In addition, the Companys executive
officers and directors are indemnified under Delaware General Corporation Law and the Companys Bylaws to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware Law.

LEGAL ACTIONS INVOLVING MANAGEMENT

The Company, its directors and certain of its officers have been
named as defendants in two stockholder class action lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. A consolidated complaint, filed October 11, 2005, purported to seek unspecified damages on behalf of
an alleged class of persons who purchased the Companys common stock pursuant to the registration statement filed in connection with the Companys public offering of stock on December 14, 2004. The complaint alleged that the Company
and its officers and directors violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose in the registration statement material information about plans to make a change in its European operations, the Companys dealings with one of its customers
and whether certain of its products infringe on the intellectual property rights of Oakley, Inc. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint which the court granted on March 29, 2006. The court allowed plaintiffs to file an amended
complaint only with respect to their claim about a European distribution change. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint dated April 7, 2006. No discovery has been conducted. However, based on the facts presently known, management believes the
Company has meritorious defenses to this action and intends to vigorously defend the action.

In December 2005, two stockholders filed
derivative lawsuits in state court in San Diego, purportedly on the Companys behalf, against eight of the Companys current or former directors and officers and against one of the Companys stockholders, No Fear. A consolidated
amended complaint was filed in March 2006 alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties and injured Orange 21 by allowing the Company to issue a misleading registration statement and prospectus in connection with the Companys
December 2004 public offering and alleging that No Fear sold Orange 21 stock while having knowledge of material, non-public information. The derivative plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, disgorgement of profits, treble damages and other relief.
The case is still in the pretrial stage.

The following pages contain a report issued by the Compensation Committee relating to executive compensation for 2005,
a chart titled Stock Price Performance Graph and a report issued by the Audit Committee relating to its review of the accounting, auditing and financial reporting practices of the Company. Stockholders should be aware that under SEC
rules, the Report of the Compensation Committee of the Board on Executive Compensation, the Stock Price Performance Graph and the Report of the Audit Committee of the Board and are not deemed to be soliciting material or
filed with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and are not incorporated by reference in any past or future filing by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or the Securities Act of 1933, unless these
sections are specifically referenced.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

OF THE BOARD ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee is comprised of three independent directors. The Compensation Committee is responsible for developing and monitoring compensation arrangements for the executive officers of the Company, administering the
Companys stock option plan and other compensation plans and performing other activities and functions related to executive compensation as may be assigned from time to time by the Board of Directors (the Board). The
performance criteria for the Chief Executive Officer (the CEO) and other executive officers for fiscal year 2005 was established by the Compensation Committee.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Compensation Committee believes that compensation of the
Companys executive officers should encourage creation of stockholder value and achievement of strategic corporate objectives. It is the Compensation Committees philosophy to align the interests of the Companys stockholders and
management by integrating compensation with the Companys annual and long-term corporate strategic and financial objectives. In order to attract and retain the most qualified personnel, the Company intends to offer a total compensation package
competitive with companies in the action and extreme sports industry, taking into account relative company size, performance and geographic location as well as individual responsibilities and performance. The components of executive officer
compensation consist of base salary, bonus and stock options, which are discussed separately below.

The Company generally intends to
qualify executive compensation for deductibility without limitation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Section 162(m) provides that, for purposes of the regular income tax and the alternative minimum tax, the otherwise
allowable deduction for compensation paid or accrued with respect to a covered employee of a publicly-held corporation (other than certain exempt performance-based compensation) is limited to no more than $1.0 million per year. The Company does not
expect that the non-exempt compensation to be paid to any of its executive officers for fiscal 2005 as calculated for purposes of Section 162(m) will exceed the $1.0 million limit.

Executive Officer Base Salary

The Compensation Committee reviews salaries recommended by the CEO
for executive officers other than the CEO, and based upon such review approves salaries and raises for such executive officers. The Compensation Committee sets the salary level of each executive officer on a case-by-case basis, taking into account
the individuals level of responsibilities and performance. The Compensation Committee also considers market information and the base salaries and other incentives paid to executive officers of other similarly sized companies within the
Companys industry. In addition, the Company has entered into employment agreements with certain of its executive officers.

Executive Officer
Bonuses

The Compensation Committee believes that a portion of executive officer compensation should be contingent upon the
Companys performance and an individuals contribution to the Companys success in

16

meeting corporate and financial objectives. Bonuses paid for fiscal 2005 were determined on a case-by-case basis. For officers other than the CEO, the
Compensation Committee evaluated each executive officer with the CEO to determine the bonus for the fiscal year, which was based on individual and corporate performance criteria, taking into account economic and industry conditions. The Compensation
Committee approves the executive officer bonuses.

Stock Option Grants

The Compensation Committee administers the Companys 2004 Stock Incentive Plan for executive officers, employees, consultants and outside directors,
under which it grants options to purchase the Companys Common Stock with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The Compensation Committee believes that providing executive
officers who have responsibility for the management and growth of the Company with an opportunity to increase their ownership of Company stock aligns the interests of the Companys executive officers with those of its stockholders and promotes
retention of key personnel, which is also in the best interest of the stockholders. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee, when reviewing executive officer compensation, also considers stock option grants as appropriate. At its discretion, from
time to time the Compensation Committee may also grant options based on individual and corporate achievements. Grants made to the CEO and other executive officers of the Company are approved by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee
determines the number of shares underlying each stock option grant based upon the executive officers and the Companys performance, the executive officers role and responsibilities within the Company, the executive officers
base salary and comparison with comparable awards to individuals in similar positions in the industry.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

The Compensation Committee determines the compensation (including bonus and option grants) of the CEO using the same criteria as for
the other executive officers. Barry Buchholtz served as the Companys CEO during the 2005 fiscal year. Mr. Buchholtzs base salary was $94,000 for fiscal year 2005. In 2005, Mr. Buchholtz earned, and the Compensation Committee
approved, a cash bonus of $42,943 for his service during fiscal 2005. In September 2005, Mr. Buchholtz was awarded an option to purchase 75,000 shares of Common Stock at the closing market price on the date of grant. The option vested and
became exercisable on December 31, 2005. In determining the size of Mr. Buchholtzs grant, the Compensation Committee considered the growth of the business and the posturing of the Company for continued success.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors (the Board) in 2004 and reviewed annually. The
members of the Audit Committee are Harry Casari, David R. Mitchell and Greg Theiss, each of whom meets the independence standards established by The NASDAQ Stock Market and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Audit Committee oversees the Companys financial reporting process on behalf of the Board and is responsible for providing independent,
objective oversight of the Companys accounting functions and internal controls. It is not the duty of the Audit Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Companys financial statements are complete and accurate and are
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management is responsible for the Companys financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. The independent accountants are responsible in
their report for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles.

The
Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Companys audited financial statements contained in the 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Companys management and its independent accountants. The Audit Committee met privately with
the independent accountants and discussed issues deemed significant by the independent accountants, including those matters required by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards). In addition, the
Audit Committee has received the written disclosures from the independent accountants required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees) and discussed with the independent accountants their
independence from the Company.

Based upon the reviews and discussions outlined above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that
the audited financial statements be included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Under the securities laws of the United States, the Companys directors, executive officers and stockholders holding more than 10% of the
Companys Common Stock are required to report their initial ownership of the Companys Common Stock and any subsequent change in that ownership to the SEC. Specific due dates for these reports have been established, and the Company is
required to identify in this Proxy Statement those persons who failed to timely file these reports. To the Companys knowledge, based solely on a review of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports
were required during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its directors, executive officers, and 10% stockholders were complied with and those reports timely filed, except the
following reports which were filed late: (i) one report by each of Messrs. Casari, Mitchell, Simo and Theiss and former director Roger S. Penske, Jr. to report one transaction each for the annual nondiscretionary automatic grant of a stock
option, (ii) one report by Mr. Casari to report one transaction for his purchase of 1,000 shares of the Companys Common Stock at the time of the December 2004 initial public offering, (iii) one report by former Vice President of
Operations Gary Kopren to report one transaction for a stock option exercise, and (iv) one report by Mr. Simo to report one transaction for a stock option exercise.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR THE 2007 ANNUAL MEETING

Proposals of stockholders of
the Company that are intended to be presented by such stockholders at the Companys 2007 annual meeting of stockholders must be received by the Secretary of the Company no later than December 30, 2006 in order that they may be included, if
appropriate, in the Companys proxy statement and form of proxy relating to that meeting.

A stockholder proposal not included in the
Companys proxy statement for the 2007 annual meeting of stockholders will be ineligible for presentation at the meeting unless the stockholder gives timely notice of the proposal in writing to the Secretary of the Company at the principal
executive offices of the Company and otherwise complies with the provisions of the Companys Bylaws. To be timely, the Bylaws provide that the Company must have received the stockholders notice not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days
in advance of the date the proxy statement was released to stockholders in connection with the previous years annual meeting of stockholders. However, if the date of the 2007 annual meeting of stockholders is changed by more than 30 days from
the date contemplated at the time of this Proxy Statement, the Company must receive the stockholders notice not later than the close of business on (i) the 90th day prior to such annual meeting and (ii) the seventh day following the
day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.

PAYMENT OF COSTS

The expense of printing and mailing proxy materials and the solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to the solicitation of
proxies by mail, solicitation may be made by proxy solicitors, directors, officers and other employees of the Company by personal interview, telephone, facsimile or other means. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or
employees of the Company for such solicitation. The Company will reimburse brokerage firms and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners of the Common Stock.

20

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual
reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Proxy Statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as householding, potentially means extra
convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A number of brokers with account holders who are stockholders of the Company
will be householding the Companys proxy materials. A single Proxy Statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have
received notice from your broker that they will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish
to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate Proxy Statement and annual report, please notify your broker, and direct a written request to the Company, Attn: Investor Relations Department, 2070 Las Palmas Drive,
Carlsbad, California 92009, or contact Investor Relations at 760-804-8420. The Company will provide a separate copy of this Proxy Statement and the annual report to any stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was
delivered. Any such request should be addressed to the Company, Attn: Investor Relations Department, at the address listed above. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Proxy Statement and/or annual report at their address and
would like to request householding of their communications should contact their broker.

Whether or not you intend to be
present at the Annual Meeting, the Company urges you to return your signed proxy promptly.

Directors
